We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is a scalable solution.""The fluid user interface (probably the most user friendly interface, when compared to its competitors).""Jitterbit handles the most lines of data in a .csv and loads the quickest of any data loader I have tried.""We only use small parts of the solution, however, the parts that we use are quite adequate.""Jitterbit provides the ability to quickly map data between files and databases.""Integrity, ease of use, user-friendly user interface, and errorless logs are the most valuable features.""Easy integration with Salesforce""It is very easy to build integrations and processes to pull and push data."

"The most valuable feature of Talend Open Studio is the tMap component. There is a lot of functionality in one component.""The most valuable features are the ETL tools.""The main differentiator that I have seen between Talend and other data integration tools is the ability to view the data pipeline in the form of a program.""Talend can connect to multiple data sources, including relational data sources, ERP, CRM, and others.""The initial setup was quite straightforward. The deployment took between two and three days.""Talend is safe to use because it is very restrictive. It is easy to use when one learns how to manipulate data with SQL.""I didn't have many problems installing it. It seemed very straightforward to me.""The solution's technical support is responsive and helpful."

Cons
"The initial setup can be a little bit difficult.""In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations.""Looping through complex data structures can be difficult.""Its API management capabilities need improvement.""I know with Salesforce updating the UI like they did, it slowed it down a lot.""Sometimes additional connectors are needed.""You need to have some development skills or hire a Jitterbit engineer to make changes.""Sometimes we experience disconnections and I have to close all Jitterbit programs."

More Jitterbit Harmony Cons →

"Talend should improve the log and error handling to better track the errors you find during development. Sometimes it's challenging to see what's causing an issue, and tracking that on Talend is complicated.""The product could be more intuitive.""Talend Open Studio has a lot of capabilities, but there is some restriction. For example, if we want to connect to an SAP system, Open Studio cannot do it. We need to go with an enterprise version. Additionally, the monitoring features could improve.""It needs better installation configuration for other databases. Although the installation allows you to select another database, this doesn't mean that all connection points in the application point to the database selected. You actually need to do a search through the entire install to locate the configuration settings and change them.""The security features could be improved.""I would say that writing to JSON is kind of a pain. It reads from a JSON file pretty well, but writing to a JSON file is not so great because its components are not good.""When faced with a challenge, such as the necessity to link up with an unconventional data source like the legacy Cyprus Vision database that wasn't inherently supported by Talend, I had to resort to writing Python code to establish the connection.""The physical appearance of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by PeerSpot users currently using the Talend Open Studio solution.

    Elio B., Data Integration Specialist/CTO at Asset messages, says, "The solution has a good balance between automated items and the ability for a developer to integrate and extend what he needs. Other competing tools do not offer the same grade of flexibility when you need to go beyond what is provided by the tool. Talend, on the other hand, allows you to expand very easily."

    A Practice Head, Analytics at a tech services company mentions, “The data integration aspect of the solution is excellent. The product's data preparation features are very good. There's very useful data stewardship within the product. From a technical standpoint, the solution itself is pretty good. There are very good pre-built connectors in Talend, which is good for many clients or businesses, as, in most cases, companies are dealing with multiple data sources from multiple technologies. That is where a tool like Talend is extremely helpful.”

    Prerna T., Senior System Executive at a tech services company, comments, “The best thing I have found with Talend Open Studio is their major support for the lookups. With Salesforce, when we want to relate our child objects to their parent object, we need to create them via IDs. Then the upsert operation, which will allow you to relate a child object to the event, will have an external ID. That is the best thing which keeps it very sorted. I like that.”

    An Implementation Specialist, Individual Contributor at a computer software company, states, “I can connect with different databases such as Oracle Database or SQL Server. It allows you to extract the data from one database to another. I can structure the data by filtering and mapping the fields.” He also adds, “It is very user-friendly. You need to know the basics of SQL development or SQL queries, and you can use this tool.”

    PeerSpot user Badrakh V., Information System Architect at Astvision, explains, "The most valuable features are the ETL tools."
